I want to move a dormant/closed (meaning all issues of requested relief have either been granted or otherwise adjudicated and no unheard motions are pending ) divorce case from one state (as it has "permanant jurisdiction") to Florida. I looked thru Florida Rules of Civil Proceedure and I believe this action is called Domestication as I am now a resident of FL (the term/action has nothing to do with me, but it refers to the treatment and movement of a dormant case from a court that has permanant jurisdiction to a new state, FL) . I’m Pro Se and I just can’t find the mechanics of doing this (wording, filing, etc). My former wife will object vehemently which will result in a hearing, but I can’t afford to go to that other state (money and time from work- it wouldn’t be just one trip and one day, but several) to fool with that as I know I have rights as a resident of FL. Please advise- this is for the happiness of my liitle girl.
